MovieFan reviewed Infamous (2006)
Infamous
It's a shame that Infamous was released a year after Capote, which saw Phillip Seymour Hoffman earn a well deserved Academy Award for Best Actor. Infamous seemed to pick up on a few facts that Capote left behind. In all honesty, Toby Jones' portrayal as Truman Capote, in my opinion was by far better than Phillip Seymour Hoffman in Capote. Although a little slow in parts of the movie, Infamous, despite similarities to Capote, was well worth the time.
